Denny's is one of many restaurants that are giving out free meals to veterans this Veterans Day. Honoring military members isn't a new thing for Denny's, as they've been doing it for years. This November, they're giving out completely free breakfast to any eligible customer on Veterans Day.

Other typically breakfast restaurants include IHOP. There are great lunch and dinner options at Golden Corral, O'Charley's, Red Robin, Chili's, T.G.I. Friday's, and BJ's Restaurant. Try a steak at Outback Steakhouse, Longhorn Steakhouse, or Texas Roadhouse. If you feel like something different try seafood at Red Lobster or yummy Italian dishes at Olive Garden,

Denny's Veterans Day Free Breakfast Restrictions

The free Veterans Day meal at Denny's is free for food from their Build Your Own Grand Slam Breakfast menu only, not from any of their other menus.

This free Grand Slam Breakfast offer is restricted to one day and during certain times only. The meal is from 5 AM to Noon and takes place the day before Veterans Day, and on that day alone.

The free breakfast is for military members with a valid military ID who are actively in the military, are retired, or who are non-active. Guests, family members, and anyone else who doesn't show a military ID will need to pay full price for their meals.

It's not certain whether all Denny's locations are participating in this free offer, so again, it's important to call ahead of time to be sure that your local restaurant is doing this on Veterans Day.

Denny's Veterans Day free meal is for dine-in only and will not be available for online ordering.
